The latest album from Michael Cashmore (formerly of Current 93, plus known for his work as Nature and Organisation and collaborations with artists such as Marc Almond, Nick Cave, Bill Fay, Rose McDowell and Antony and the Johnsons, amongst others) veers from the paths his previous releases have been on into an area altogether more grandiose or stately. While all of his recordings under his own name have alluded to orchestral or soundtrack work to varying degrees, he has long committed himself to a series of six actual symphonies. Comprising four movements, two on each side, under the title The Last Light is Your Own Star, these are as bold and beautiful as they are demonstrative of a composer now reaching new heights as he matures into his vision.

The latest album from Michael Cashmore (formerly of Current 93 plus known for his work as Nature and Organisation) collects ten pieces which, as with the previous album, Until the End of Vibration, released by Lumberton Trading Company, draw from that magical place where crepuscular and moody soundtrack work converges with the kind of synth lines Tangerine Dream made a name for themselves with. Along the way, there are piano-led melodic swells, a couple of surprisingly serrated edges and sparingly used percussion veering between the bombastic and more emotionally charged. Between each of the compositions, there's an overarching sense of sadness or resignation while carefully woven refrains point to the simple beauty one derives from staring at a night sky or the sun's rise or setting over a serene sea apparently untouched by man. Sophisticated yet unostentatious, this is music that's bold, minimal and utterly deserving of the attention of the film that will doubtlessly play out in your head as you lock yourself in to everything it promises.

"Michael Cashmore is an English composer and musician currently living in Berlin. He has created music under the name of Nature And Organisation since the early '80s and more recently (2006) under his own name. He is widely known as being the composer of the most seminal albums of legendary group Current 93 during a 25 year period, he has also worked with, and wrote music for, Nick Cave, Marc Almond, Anohni (Antony and the Johnsons), Tony Visconti, Bill Fay, Little Annie among others. During the last 3 years Cashmore has been undergoing a process of personal transformation which has also caused a transformation of his work. Michael has also been using his music itself as a tool of transformation in return. His new album The Doctrine Of Transformation Through Love II is the second part of a series of works that documents Cashmore's personal transformation from 2017 onwards. The music here is now very experimental, electronic, melodic and could be seen to have a dark connection to techno. As a strong contrast to the rest of the album the last track features a simple melodic song with legendary singer/songwriter Little Annie. The album is an eternal journey through darkness, space and loneliness through divine love into light and elevated consciousness, it is a documentation and is a key tool to be used in the process of transformation through love. This album was created to energize and turn the listener into an active participator in the work. It introduces Michael's new movement The Hidden Throne 434 which is intended to motivate and inspire people to reach their true potential through transformation through love, this album will become a force within its creation and reaction."

"Michael Cashmore (currently of Current 93/ex-Nature & Organization) follows up his well received debut CD from 2006 (Sleep England) with a brand new 5 track mini album. In stark contrast to the entirely instrumental album, The Snow Abides mixes fully orchestrated music composed by Mr. Cashmore with lyrics and texts specially written by David Tibet and sung by Antony Hegarty of Antony & The Johnsons. The results are as lush, celebratory and melancholy as you could hope for. This will be of particular interest to Antony & The Johnsons' fans, as this is Antony's first new material since 2005's Mercury award-winning I Am A Bird Now which catapulted him into the hearts and minds of the mainstream. Beautiful snow-white colored heavy-weight vinyl also includes an extra B-side 'untitled' track that is specially cut into the center of the disc."
